it's called the Daily 3. you don't win that much. your odds at 1:1000 so if you get it right they probably pay you $500 for a $1 ticket.

2MCM, how could you possibly know that? Do you work for the lottery commission? You don't. You just think you know EVERYTHING, no matter how obscure.

I'm just curious, do you look in the mirror and compliment yourself out loud?

"You're lookin' good today, hot stuff!"

"People like you, because you're special."

"Don't pay attention to the people laughing at you, they're just jealous."

If you've ever even seen one of the mixing machines they use, you'd understand that it would be near impossible to fix 3 numbers to come out - someone would have to give the ok to do it, which likely wouldnt happen, someone would actually have to pull it off, which likely wouldnt happen, and then they'd have to increase the payout many times over what it normally is - I can imagine a lot of people chose those numbers. For the gaming commission to do this really makes no sense.

numbers were fixed, it was all made that way to catch publicity, please lets move on and isn't this supposed to be in the official 9-11 thread?

I remember watching lucky numbers which was about rigging a lottry, but the movie kinda sucked. i think what they did was they weighed down the other balls except the numbers they wanted.
